This season's CBA is in chaos, and since the start of the second phase of the regular season, many traditional strong teams have suffered defeats, while the former civilian teams have emerged.
In the 17th round of the game, Shanxi, who could not reach the playoffs last season, cut off the Beijing team that rushed to the championship, won six consecutive victories, and has now risen to the 5th place in the league.
Since shanxi entered the second stage, they have played better than the first stage, successively overturning the strong teams Guangdong and Shenzhen, and then beating Beijing 118-112. In the rankings, these three traditional strong teams are left behind, and the dark horses of the Shanxi team are full of color. In this way, it is not an exaggeration to add the Current Momentum of The Shanxi Team to the list of championship teams.
The reason why Shanxi team has been able to stand out this season is related to two major factors. First of all, the champion coach Yang Xuezeng was indispensable, and after he came to the Shanxi team, he successfully activated the four people.
Ge Zhaobao improved from 9.9 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game last season to 18.2 points, 7.6 rebounds and 3.4 assists;
Xing Zhiqiang improved from averaging 4.5 points and 1.7 rebounds per game last season to 11.6 points and 7.4 rebounds;
Zhang Ning improved from 7.6 points and 2.5 rebounds last year to 12.4 points and 4.5 rebounds;
Feld averaged just 13.1 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5.9 assists in Guangsha last season, and now averages 24.7 points, 6.9 rebounds and 10.6 assists in Shanxi.
So many people in the team have almost doubled their data, and they have been used by Yang Xuezeng, and it has to be said that Yang Zhi really has two brushes.
In addition to the head coach, the addition of Feld is also an important factor in the transformation of the Shanxi team this season. Only 1.75 meters tall, Felder is the shortest foreign aid in the league, once playing in Xinjiang and Guangsha, but he has been abandoned by Adi Jiang and Wang Bo, especially last season in Guangsha, he averaged only 13.1 points per game, which was labeled as a parallel foreign aid.
But after coming to Shanxi this season, Feld became the team's top scorer. He can organize offense, connect teams, successfully revitalize the Shanxi team, in addition to scoring 24.7 points per game, he can also contribute 10.6 assists, both of which set a new CBA career high. His assists entered the ranks of the top small foreign aides, ranking in the top three assists, only 0.2 times and 0.1 times less than Gordon and Franklin, respectively, and 4 times more than when he was in Guangsha.
Today, Felder's average of 24.7 points, 10.6 assists, 6.9 rebounds and 2.6 steals per game has set a new CBA career high, and the overall performance is better than Franklin. Feld became a strengthened version of Franklin, which is the main reason why the Shanxi team can now change from a weak team to a strong team.
The former MVP Fortson did not have as many assists as Feld, and Franklin, who was good at assists, was not much better than Feld, but Feld had an advantage in scoring, 6.5 points more than Franklin. The foreign aid abandoned by Adi Jiang and Wang Bo is now playing the data of the top small foreign aid, which is eye-catching, and the Shanxi team has attracted Feld this season, which is really a treasure!
Today's Shanxi team lineup is in order, and Simmons, who has just joined, has supplemented the thickness of the team's front line. Counting Simmons, the current Shanxi team has 7 people averaging in double figures per game. The average score per game is the second in the league, the average number of three-point shots per game is the first in the league, the offensive efficiency league is third, with Yang Xuezeng sitting in the seat, Felder leading the team, this Shanxi team should not be underestimated.
